. "We came out flat and then made some adjustments. We were telling the players `Don't rush your shots.' '

The Lancers (10-6 overall, 5-3 Midwestern League) listened, as they were 15-for-20 from the field during the final three quarters to keep the Millers (10-5, 6-2) from moving into a tie for first place.

Halfway through the league schedule, Churchill sits tied with Sheldon in fourth place, while the Millers are now tied for second with Willamette.

Springfield led 11-4 after the first quarter, but the Lancers outscored the Millers 26-10 in the second period. The Millers had 10 turnovers in the quarter, and Churchill scored on 12 of its 17 possessions during the period.

When fouled, the Lancers made 9-of-10 free throws in the fourth quarter.

"Our goal in the second half was to possess the ball," Harter said. "If this was football, we won the time-of-possession battle."
